The strange things of that day, until now, Fang Yan is resentful as long as he thinks of it, but he also has a deep layer of jealousy in his heart......
He didn't know what was going on, and when Fang Yan realized that something was wrong and came to his senses, he was already on a gloomy ship, and the originally intact and tidy bed had become old and tattered in an instant, with the smell of dampness.
Fang Yan was not the only one in this abnormal situation, all the people on the entire ship woke up in a short period of time, some were frightened and shrunk, and some were on alert. At this moment, a terrifying power suddenly descended, and it was ...... A direct shock to the soul!
The only one on the entire Golden Merry who could withstand this impact was Fang Yan, who was a forging master with extremely strong mental power, and the others all fell into a state of not knowing whether they were in a coma or dead, Fang Yan only had time to protect Xiao Ace, who was also sleeping in the lower bunk, and even Ace's mother didn't have time to protect him. And even if Little Ace had his own help, he still suffered a lot of impact, and his consciousness fell into a state of half-consciousness and half-sleep.
At this time, because of Fang Yan's abnormal performance, he was naturally noticed by the mastermind behind this operation, after all, the only sober goal was too obvious. As a result, a group of pirates with swords and half-undead appeared in front of Fang Yan, and Fang Yan counted a total of 18.
After a battle that was not too fierce...... Fang Yan was captured alive very neatly.
That's right, Fang Yan's current strength is very strong, and his self-estimation is not inferior to the middle-aged monk at the beginning, but this group of guys in front of him is too strong! Pick out an undead pirate at random, and their strength is about the same as Fang Yan's, not to mention that they haven't had a shameless group fight-a group fight...... Fang Yan's first battle since his travels ended in a complete defeat.
This was just the beginning, after being taken away by this group of undead pirates, Fang Yan saw those two ...... that he would never forget for the rest of his life Person? Neither of these guys is clearly human.
One of them was a skeletal frame, and the bones all over his body were miserable white, which seemed inconspicuous at first glance, but the miserable white crown on his head undoubtedly announced his identity - the owner of this ship, Fang Yan had just told the story and was very impressed by the Pirate Emperor! He looked exactly like the flag logo fluttering on the ship's mast.
Maybe he didn't believe in the legend of the "ghost ship" before, but at this time, on such an eerie, tattered but stable ship, which looked completely consistent with the legendary ghost ship, Fang Yan had to choose to believe in this legend. So, can the skeletal shelf with the crown on his head in front of him be anyone else besides the Pirate Emperor?
However, compared to this Pirate Emperor, it was another one who impressed Fang Yan even more and gritted his teeth later...... Because he was wearing a pitch-black robe that covered his entire body, Fang Yan couldn't figure out his identity, and only judged that he was not a human by the strange and cold feeling on his body.
From the words of the Pirate Emperor later, Fang Yan knew that this existence hidden in the black robe was not a member of the Emperor Pirate Group, but a very talkative guest invited by the Pirate Emperor. Of course, Fang Yan also knew later why these two could talk about it-the past was unbearable!
Anyway, when Fang Yan first saw the Pirate Emperor, he was indeed taken aback, and his heart was full of unknown fear. Controlled by others, Fang Yan was powerless to resist at all.
However, things did not unfold as Fang Yan feared, and the Pirate Emperor did not laugh wildly and take out a knife to force Fang Yan to the sampan erected by the side of the ship, as Fang Yan had in his impression, and then said, "Jump down!" Or stabbed to death by me! ”
When the Pirate Emperor saw Fang Yan who was tied up, he just glanced at the bracer on Fang Yan's hand casually, and then asked in a positive tone very calmly: "Little guy, are you a forger?" ”
Fang Yan was stunned.
Seeing the look of surprise in Fang Yan's eyes, the Pirate Emperor stretched out a finger and shook it: "That's a storage prop, right?" It's all your breath from beginning to end, and the resonance itself is exactly the same as yours, and the only conclusion is that the storage prop was made by you. At this age, there are only a few talented forgers who can make storage items, and their knowledge is not a thousand years ago. ”
Fang Yan was speechless.
Still thinking about how the Pirate Emperor would deal with him, the Pirate Emperor suddenly pulled out the sailor knife at his waist, pointed in front of Fang Yan when he wanted to fight against the water when he was in a desperate situation, and said lightly: "Kneel down for so-and-so!" ”
An incomparably strong coercion came suddenly, and under the sudden pressure, Fang Yan's body couldn't help but lower, but a ruthless color flashed in his eyes, and he held it down, his fists were clenched, and his nails had sunk deep into the flesh because of the excessive force.
In the face of Fang Yan's performance, a hint of appreciation flashed in the Pirate Emperor's eyes - although there was only a pair of black hole cave eyes left, there was indeed a flash of appreciation in them, and he quietly increased the intensity of coercion, and continued to increase.
After a stalemate of about a minute, Fang Yan's body had already burst with blood, and he finally couldn't hold on to kneeling down on one knee, glaring at the Pirate Emperor with humiliating resentment.
"Fang Yan, right, the great Captain Jackson appointed you as a crew member of the Imperial Pirate Regiment, this is your highest honor! Because of your status as a forge, you will be assigned to the logistics department and temporarily serve as a supernumerary member of the logistics department. Rest assured, you will find an opportunity to promote you in the future, don't be too grateful to you, as long as you do your job well. ”
At the same time as the pirate captain Jackson finished speaking, a heart-piercing pain suddenly came from Fang Yan's body, like hundreds of millions of ants gnawing at the same time, and Fang Yan's will couldn't help but exhale in pain. The pain came and went as fast as it could, and after a few seconds all the pain went away like a tidal tide, except for the burning pain in the left arm and shoulder. Fang Yan hurriedly undressed and saw that a skull symbol wearing a miserable white crown appeared there.
Seeing all this, Captain Jackson, the Pirate Emperor, nodded with satisfaction, and with a "swish" handsome pulled the sailor knife back to his waist, and said lightly: "This is a symbol of your identity, Fang Yan." You are now a member of the Imperial Pirate Order, and will always be a member of the Imperial Pirate Order, an identity that will stay with you for the rest of your life until the death of your soul. So, do it. ”
Fang Yan was speechless, the anger on his face couldn't be hidden, and he said angrily: "Hey! Who gave you the right to decide my fate? I don't want to be a pirate! I ......"
Captain Jackson pretended not to hear, no matter how Fang Yan shouted, he didn't react at all, he whistled and shook his head and left, the whistle mixed with the sound of bones touching and rubbing was simply terrifying. Then, the group of undead pirates holding swords from before appeared in front of Fang Yan again.
Under the "escort" of the "Emperor Eighteen Skeletons", the situation was stronger than people, and Fang Yan could only honestly leave with them and report to the so-called "Logistics Department" - if this tattered room with only one skeleton lying in it could be regarded as a department.
After checking in, Fang Yan returned to the deck under the "escort" of the "Emperor Eighteen Skeletons". At this time, there were already a large number of skeletons gathered here, no less than thousands, all of them sitting quietly and upright on the deck looking in one direction. Although he was a big living person sitting in it, how could he look wrong, and he would have been scared of the problem if he were an ordinary person, Fang Yan didn't care about these at all at the moment, and all his thoughts were spent on thinking about the way out.
Escaping, naturally you have to escape, this idea has never wavered in Fang Yan's heart. However, Fang Yan's original plan was to stay on this ship for a few days, and then find an opportunity to see if he could find a way to save the people on the original Golden Merry while escaping - no matter how bad it was, he would also save Ace's mother and son.
However, the plan can never catch up with the changes, and some things make Fang Yan unable to bear it anymore, and he is no longer willing to stay on this ship for even a minute......
The group of skeletons erupted in applause, and Captain Jackson and his guest appeared at the forefront......
Can you imagine that as soon as you open your eyes, you will see a skeleton writhing in a "graceful" and strange dance in the moonlight, all kinds of movements that humans can't do, such as spinning a certain part of the body several times, and taking off the head as a top hat to thank everyone, the sound of bones clashing and rubbing constantly, and thousands of skeletons clapping and cheering silently?
Fang Yan didn't know what others would think, at least he had a tangled and painful expression on his face now. That's fine, you can close your eyes and not look at this strange scene, but what is even more terrifying is the invited guest!
I saw him with his back to everyone, looking up at the moon slightly, and suddenly opened his throat and began to sing loudly! That sound...... It was like hundreds of chainsaws from Picheng's specialties sawing glass at the same time, it was an incomparably painful torture for Fang Yan to listen to, and at this moment he even began to miss the coercion that Captain Jackson had unleashed when he appointed him before.
The most terrifying thing is that this sound does not come from the air, but directly through the soul! Even if Fang Yan covered his ears and even poked his deafness, he still couldn't stop this "pleasant" singing! At the end of the song, Fang Yan had collapsed on the ground, and at the same time, he silently gave the unknown guest a nickname in his heart: Soul Singer.
Ordinary people ask for money for singing, but this singing is simply terrible! Singing alone is enough to destroy a person's soul, and the name "soul singer" is definitely well deserved!
Then, just as Fang Yan collapsed to the ground at the end of the song and breathed a sigh of relief, the great Captain Jackson was pleased to announce that such amusement would continue tomorrow night.
So, Fang Yan fled.
Finding an opportunity to sneak into the original room, unable to escape with Ace and his mother, Fang Yan could only collect their souls - he didn't know what the fate of these people would be, so he still had to do this just in case, just throw it away and Fang Yan couldn't do it. It's a pity that just when Fang Yan had just received Ace's soul and hadn't had time to save Ace's mother Lu Xiu, his action was revealed.
Countless skeletons poured in like a tide, and Fang Yan had no choice but to give up saving Lu Xiu and use a life-saving hair given by Sun Wukong at the beginning. The moment the life-saving hair was used, Fang Yan knew the true effect of this hair, "True and False Monkey King"!
Leaving a phantom of himself in place, the real Fang Yan entered a state of invisibility, time was very tight, and there was no time to save Lu Xiu, Fang Yan could only choose to flee directly. Crossing the group of skeletons as fast as he could, Fang Yan jumped into the sea with a sampan and successfully escaped from the ghost ship - in his hurry, he did not see Captain Jackson and the "soul singer" who were watching him with interest on the side of the ship.
……
"Now that I think about it, although the time spent floating on the sea was miserable, it was ten thousand times better than listening to that guy sing!" Thinking of that singing, Fang Yan couldn't help but shudder, broke free from his memories, and showed a scared expression.
Clenched his fists, looking at the skull tattoo on his shoulder, a trace of worry flashed in Fang Yan's eyes: "However, the matter is not over yet, we have to find a way to lift this curse first." ”
